General description

(+)-Catechin is the enantiomer of the polyphenolic flavonoid, catechin. Known for its antioxidative nature, it is present in various herbs, vegetables, fruits, green teas, chocolates, and red wines.[1][2]

Application

This analytical standard can also be used as follows:
  • Method development for the multi-determination of catechin and its diastereomers in the leaf extracts and infusions obtained from five Byrsonima species using high-performance liquid chromatography, combined with photodiode array (PAD) and circular dichroism (CD) detectors
  • Determination of catechin in commercial green and black tea samples using magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) based on a novel adsorbent— O-carboxymethyl-chitosan-g- acrylic acid sodium salt (O-CMCs-g-AAS) copolymer deposited on magnetic graphene oxide (MGO), for sample pre-treatment and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)
  • Multi-residue analysis of eight catechins and four theaflavins in three different commercial tea infusions (green, black, and oolong) by ultra high-performance liquid chromatography in combination with triple-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS-MS)
  • Simultaneous detection and quantification of four phenolic compounds— catechin, caffeic acid, rutin, and trans-cinnamic acid, using ultrasonic-assisted extraction and HPLC coupled with diode array detection from Physalis angulata L. plant material samples
  • Multi-residue determination of catechins, caffeine, and polyphenols, from 45 fresh Jukro tea leaf samples, collected at 40, 60, and 90-day intervals, by an HPLC-based method combined with PDA detection

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Content inside is inserted in a fused cone.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
